Disciplining tongue 9/1/2018

We went to the local orchard and farm. There we can purchase whatever we picked from the orchard and farm.

We enjoyed picking fresh produces and fruits. We picked apples, peaches, and pears at the orchard. And we picked corn, okura, green bean, zucchini, yellow squash, bell pepper, and variety of chilies.

We also bought two bottles of their homemade pickles. One is a bottle of Okura pickles and the other is a bottle of variety of vegetable pickles. Unfortunately, the taste was not what I expected. I felt uncomfortably too strong salt in them. I could taste unnecessary chemicals in the salt.

Probably it is a good sign.

My Macrobiotic instructor recommends us to eat high quality foods so that we can improve the ability of our tongue. When we get used to eating whole foods (high quality foods), our tongue will be able to recognize which foods is good or bad for our body by its sensation.

I use high quality salt for cooking at home. I also use Shio-kouji for cooking. Shio-kouji is the salt malted with fermented rice. It is one of the Japanese traditional condiments.

I am glad I am on the right path to discipline my tongue.

Any feedback? (^^♪
